Laskeva lohikäärme
... Virhe! Heti kun turret olivat poistuneet, vene pakitteli turvallisen sadan metrin päähän ankkuriin ja miehistöllä oli tunti hyvää aikaa tarkistaa, kuinka paljon turistien rahavarannoista voisi huomaamatta siirtää omaan taskuun. Meiltä katosi 200 kiinan rahaa ja ilmeisesti muutamia satoja thaimaan bateja. Kun informoimme opastamme kadonneesta käteisestä, kaveri hieman suuttui ja kysyi miksi meillä on kiinan rahaa mukanamme. Yritin selittää, että se ei tavallaan ole se ...
Ha Long Bay... wow
... Canadian couple who reminded us of Big B and Jo and were pretty cool despite being Canucks fans. Did a bit of kayaking in the bay and checked out some amazing caves.
